Avatar

• Other avatar style
• No presenter appears in the avatar, banner or thumbnails. The images are AI-style illustrated scenes (barns, buckets, batteries, an open book on a desk) with bold caption text, and the channel is voiced by an unseen narrator.

Long (about 22–32 min) voice-over explainers: a hook promising a cheap forgotten or Amish method, a numbered list or step-by-step build, and a closing recap.
